KTB’s Property Management Tenant Placement Service may just be the answer.

We will market your property the exact same way we market our other properties. You get all the same website exposure, leasing agent attention, Real Estate market notification and signage as our lease-with-management clients get. We currently receive 30 to 40 applications a month and can lease your home quickly to a well-qualified tenant.

You are 100% involved with the decision making. We will contact you when we have a qualified application. We will show the property; process the application; obtain their credit, rental history, and verify employment; we then review the application with you. Since you will be managing the tenant you should be making the decision as to who receives approved and the terms of the rental agreement. We will get your authorization in writing and prepare the paperwork, consistent with your approval.

We will have the tenant authorize a Rental Agreement naming you (your LLC, Corporation or Land Trust) as the landlord. This lease has been written and approved by the California Association of Realtors. As CAR members, we are authorized to use this Rental Agreement on your behalf. Real Estate attorneys have developed this Rental Agreement and it is used throughout the State. You will also receive all the needed addendums like a pet addendum, roommate addendum, mold disclosure and more.

KTB will perform the Move-In Inspection. We will meet the tenant at the property, document the condition, take photographs, log the make, model, and color of the appliances, hand over keys, receive the security deposit plus the first month of rent in certified funds. You will be holding their security deposit, not KTB. This is done to conform to the California Landlord Tenant Law so you are on the right track from day one!

You get all the original documents and the security deposit. Within 7 days of their move-in you will receive all the signed documents, application, credit report, security deposit and phone numbers. KTB will keep 75% of the first month's rent as our fee and you will receive the rest.

If the tenant renews the lease (or buys the property) you owe us nothing.

Why it makes good sense to pay KTB Property Management a $500.00 marketing fee to get into the Tenant Placement program.

There are two reasons we collect a marketing fee before we list the property.

First, we’ve done Tenant Placement for over 20 years. Experience has ta ught us that investors who use this service are entrepreneurs and hands-on investors. They will place their property on the market with KTB just to see what happens, and continue to advertise and look for their own tenant. We understand that no one wants to sits back, folds their hands and waits for us to lease the property. They keep trying to rent it themselves.

Too often, after listing the property with us, owners will accept an applicant (many times an unqualified one) from another source, and withdraw the listing to keep from paying our fee. This can be frustrating and very expensive. We have learned over time that we should expect this and not try to prevent it. Although it was unfair to KTB we could not figure out how to prevent it. So we stopped trying. The advance fee helps us recover some of our initial marketing expenses when this situation occurs. Now you can rent your own property, after listing with KTB, and pay nothing extra.

Secondly, it’s expensive to send someone to the property to take digital pictures, prepare them for marketing, prepare flyers for the local Realtors, list it on websites, put up a sign, and place a lockbox on the property. It takes a lot of time and manpower to get this done. The $500.00 advance fee helps cover some of these expenses and shows us that you are serious about tapping into our system. We don’t want everybody jumping on board “just to see how it works” as it takes too much time, labor, and money getting a property into the system.

The cost of the Tenant Placement service is $500.00 to get started, then the balance of 75% of the first month's rent when we lease the property.

Advertising and Tenant Screening

This is our most economical choice; this program allows our investors to tap into our advertising resources and to get more traffic through the door. If you are paying too much in advertising and not getting the results you need, this program just may help. We will post the Internet advertising using our most effective rental hosting websites, take the calls live, and forward the screened prospect directly to you to handle the showing and negotiating. We can even get an application completed and pull a credit report for you.

For the do-it-yourself investor, looking for maximum marketing exposure for the dollar, KTB Property Management will list your property in our marketing program, screen the callers, get an application (and credit report) and pass them on to you. The property can be anywhere in greater Granite Bay; our marketing program covers Granite Bay, Placer, Yolo and El Dorado counties.
